When the first rays of morning light appeared from the eastern sky, there was a terrible sound of swan trumpets in the Tang army's formation, which sounded continuously.

When the morning light first appeared www.biquge.info there was still a fog between heaven and earth, and the Tang army's attack had already begun.

The direction of the Tang Army's main attack was the city wall on the right side of the West Gate of Manila.

60 steel heavy dragon bombardment guns shining with silver gray light were slowly pushed by the Tang gunners to a kilometer outside the West Gate of Manila.

Subsequently, 60 heavy dragon mortars were all concentrated in the area on the right side of the West Gate in Manila.

Next, the Don gunners began to fix the gun mounts, adjust the angle of fire, reload gunpowder and shells, and soon made preparations for battle.

Looking at the tall and wide city of Manila in front of him, Li Xiao, who was in the back of the battle, suddenly remembered the modern history of Manila, and couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart.

In 1571, the Spanish colonizer Rigasby landed from Manila, invaded and occupied the Philippines, and then built castles and forts in the area from what is now downtown Manila to the south bank of the Bashi River.

Since then, the former capital of Luzon, known as Little Luzon, has become the capital of the Spanish colonial authorities.

In real history, it was not until 1898 that the Americans invaded Manila, completely replacing the Spanish rule in the Philippines, and then conquered the nearby Negro tribe, and incorporated the surrounding towns and regions into Manila, so that Manila gradually expanded, and officially formed the modern Philippine capital Manila City.

And now, in this time and space that I have traveled through, this future Philippine capital has become the prey that I can no longer escape from my palm, which is a wonderful feeling.

Perhaps, from now on, this Far Eastern city, known as the Pearl of the Orient in modern society, will forever become the eternal inherent territory of the Chinese Empire.

And watching the Tang gunners pushing those huge cannons, just when they stopped a thousand meters away from the city wall, López, the Spanish governor in full armor, was also infinitely emotional.

Originally, López was still thinking that the Tang Army would most likely have to temporarily make siege equipment and other things, so that this Manila city could survive for a few more days.

But now, when López saw the Tang Army launch as many as 60 dragon bombers with huge muzzles and thick barrels, he understood that his humble idea would also be completely defeated.

With such powerful artillery, the Tang army no longer needed to make any siege equipment, just open fire and bombard.

It is completely impossible for the city of Manila to delay for a few days.

What made him feel even more sad was that these Tang troops were not even willing to do a fake persuasion to surrender, but directly attacked the city with artillery so rudely, completely ignoring themselves, the Spanish governor, and all the defenders of Manila, how arrogant and rampant!

Think that back then, when Spain attacked Manila with heavy artillery and wiped out the Kingdom of Luzon, it was also so arrogant.

But I didn't expect that only more than 30 years later, this feng shui took turns, and Spain, which was originally invincible, was about to be trampled under the feet of these yellow-skinned monkeys.

All this is really a cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is unpleasant.

Thinking of this, a trace of hideousness flashed on López's face.

Hmph, yellow-skinned monkey, don't be complacent, even if the proud lion is down, it will bite off a piece of meat from you!

What I can do now is to kill and injure them as much as possible when the Tang army attacks, and let these hateful yellow-skinned monkeys know that even if they can take this Manila city, they will have to pay a very heavy price!

"Lord Li, all my dragon bombarders are ready, please instruct." The artillery chief shouted loudly. "Open fire." Li Xiao gave an order with an expressionless face. "Order!" At this time, López saw from the clairvoyant mirror that on the Tang Army artillery array in the distance, a person who looked like a captain raised the red flag in his hand. "Ready!" "Put!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" 。。。。。。 60 heavy dragon bombers, the muzzles of each cannon, immediately spewed out crimson afterburners and blinding golden fire, and in the dense billowing white smoke, sixty jet-black iron bullets, with the sound of death, slammed into the city wall on the right side of the west side of Manila. The huge impact sound that shattered the eardrum sounded continuously, and the sixty jet-black 32-pound iron bullets, as if they had eyes, hit the city wall on the right side of the west side of Manila City in an evenly distributed state. On the right side of the west gate of the entire city of Manila, sixty large holes arranged neatly and evenly appeared in an instant, and at the edge of each big hole, the thick and cracked lines were as dense as spider webs, and they spread unscrupulously to the siege, and the bricks of the city wall were splashed and cracked, and a piece of dust and mist was filled, and the entire city wall was trembling violently. On the city wall, a large number of Spanish soldiers who were shocked to the ears, eyes, nostrils and mouths were bleeding together, everyone was shocked and bloody, and their eyes were shrouded in dust and mist, and the city wall under their feet shook violently like a swing, and more than 50 Spanish soldiers who were unsteady on their feet fell from the city wall screaming, and then fell into meat pies. The Spanish soldiers guarding the wall on the right side of the west gate suddenly became greatly confused. There were dozens of Spanish soldiers, screaming in terror as if they had seen the most horrible thing in the world, and turned around and fled down the road of the city wall. "Don't run! You guys who have lost the face of the Spanish soldiers, come back to me! A dusty lieutenant colonel shouted loudly behind them, but he couldn't stop them from fleeing. And López, who was standing in the West Gate Tower, was also shocked and fell to the ground, his face was covered with dust and dust, and he looked extremely embarrassed. He coughed violently, stood up against the battlements of the wall, and immediately shouted loudly to keep all the defenders quiet. It's just that in this chaos, although he shouted hoarsely, it didn't have much effect. At this moment, a frightened Spanish soldier ran past López in a panic, wailing, as if he had not heard the warning of the supreme garrison. The Spanish governor López was angry and angry, he drew his sharp sword from the ground, stabbed the fleeing fellow from the back to the chest, and the fleeing soldier shook and fell to the ground. While the city of Manila was finally re-stabilized, the next round of artillery bombardment by the Don Army began. "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" 。。。。。。 Sixty jet-black 32-pound iron bullets roared in. In the deafening crash, the broken bricks on the city wall rained down and the dust and mist spread all over the sky. The dense cobwebs and cracks on the entire southern wall reached a shocking level. López and all the Spanish defenders felt the wall shaking violently under their feet, and as many as 50 Spanish soldiers who had not had time to lie down were screaming and falling from the wall. And on the city wall on the right side of the west gate of Manila City, there were five cannons of various types, which were smashed from under the city wall. These cannons fell from such a high position, and immediately smashed on the bluestone slab ground, shattering in all parts, and completely turned into a useless pile of scrap metal. In the face of such fierce violence and complete death, the struggle and resistance of human beings is almost a joke. The rest of the Spanish soldiers, no one needed to mobilize, and I don't know who shouted, these guys immediately abandoned their posts, howled and ran away. Their flight was so resolute, so unstoppable, that it was like a horde of mad beasts that seemed to knock anything in their way to the ground. "Your Excellency the Governor, quickly retreat, this West Gate city wall can no longer be defended!" Beside López, an adjutant whose nose was bleeding from a flying brick yelled at him. López, whose face was covered in dust, had a very ugly face. Do you really want to take it down? It's just that if you don't take it down, is there any other way? López wanted to say something, but the adjutant next to him had already rushed over and dragged him down the wall without saying a word. Descending the city walls, López weakly conveyed a new order. "Order the whole army to retreat from the city wall, arrange garrisons on the spot, and start a bloody battle with these damn yellow-skinned monkeys on every street and alley!" "Yes!" When the heralds went around to deliver the news that all the Spanish troops defending the city on all sides had retreated from the city walls, the third round of artillery bombardment of the Don army began. At this time, after two rounds of salvo fire, the entire west side of the city wall on the right side, has been a collapse and dilapidation, all the artillery on the city wall has been shaken to the ground, smashed, collapsed gaps, there are as many as a dozen places, and there are several collapses connected together, the width of the gap is at least nearly ten meters. The entire city wall on the right side of the west side is like a candle in the wind, and there is only the last breath left. Looking at the city wall on the right side of Manila's West Gate, which had been seriously damaged in front, a cruel smile flashed on Li Xiao's face. "Pass on the order of the Duke Army, continue to bombard, and be sure to completely break the western wall on the right side!" "Order!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" 。。。。。。 The dazzling fire flashed, the choking smoke floated up, and sixty thirty-two pound iron bullets roared away, and the sound of the huge iron bullets crashing and the dull sound of the city wall collapsing were continuous, and the smell made people palpitate. On the right side of the western wall of Manila City, after this bombardment, there were nearly 20 gaps in the collapsed city wall, large and small, and almost more than half of the city wall area completely collapsed. At this point in the battle, the entire city wall on the right side of Manila's West Gate had been completely destroyed, and Li Xiao finally began to give the order to attack loudly. "Pass on my military order to have 2,000 musketeers march in a straight line and destroy all enemy forces in front of them. In addition, arrange for the spear and shield battle array to be guarded behind the firecrackers to prevent the enemy from attacking. In addition, the rampant is always divided into two parts, left and right, covering the flanks! "'Order!' Soon, in the military formation of the Tang Army, 2,000 musketeers, each holding a fiery torch with a fizzing fire rope, lined up in a straight line, and strode forward amid the sound of drums. Behind them was a line of spears and shields that seemed to be as straight as a line, keeping a distance of five or six paces from the musketeers in front of them, and following in silence. On both sides of the entire battle array, there were rampant team members dressed in three layers of armor, each armed with heavy weapons, like mecha monsters, divided into two parts, firmly protecting the two wings. In the face of the Tang gunners who rushed neatly like machines, the Spaniards guarding the entrance of the street did not feel trembling, whether it was the Spanish spearmen holding spears or those local indigenous soldiers, they were all frightened and panicked. And López, the Spanish governor standing behind the formation, looked at the long row of Tang gunners rushing towards him, his face became more and more gray and embarrassed, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the despair in his heart was beyond words. "Your Excellency the Governor, the enemy's strength is too great, our army is limited, if we continue to resist strongly, we will only be afraid that it will be difficult for the enemy, according to the next opinion, it is better to be better, it is better to ......" The adjutant next to him said in a lower and lower voice, almost unable to speak. With a swipe, López drew his sharp saber and stabbed it fiercely, piercing the chest of the snorting adjutant at once! The adjutant's chest, blood mist, he stared at gray-blue eyes, his mouth was wide open, but he couldn't speak. López drew his sword, and the adjutant staggered a few steps before falling to the ground, convulsing to death. Armed with a blood-dripping sword, the tip of the sword pointed at the fallen adjutant, López shouted to the almost stunned Spanish soldier next to him: "If anyone dares to propose to Ben Governor like him, to surrender to these lowly and shameless yellow-skinned monkeys, this is his fate!" He was answered by a silence as deathly. And in the silence, the Tang Army's firecrackers got closer and closer. Sixty paces away from them, the musketeers stopped their advance, formed two rows of squatting and standing in front of them, and began to aim at their targets in front of them, firing their guns. "Bang bang bang! ......" The two rows of firecrackers fired at the same time, and the bright red afterburners of the two rows of firecrackers flew away, which was very beautiful. The dense and choking white smoke flew up again, making the entire position suddenly turn into a state of white and invisible. Of the 2,000 firearms, more than 1,600 were fired, and countless tiny three-coin heavy lead bullets formed a dense rain of death in the air, emitting a soft scream, and shot out in front of the panicked Spanish army on the opposite side. At least 200 Spanish pikemen and native soldiers, who were guarding the streets, were shot head-on by lead bullets, either dead or wounded. Seeing that under the blow of the Tang Army, these of his own subordinates suffered such heavy casualties, López's face was like a blank piece of paper, and his whole body trembled. No, you can't let the Don Army continue shooting like this. If the Tang army is allowed to fight like this, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are under his command, they will only become the live targets of the Tang army, and they will all die in aggrieved condition. "The whole army listens to me! Immediately rush forward and destroy the Tang Army's firecrackers! López shouted with his sword. Hearing the governor's order, the Spanish defenders, who were demoralized, reluctantly ran out of their hideouts in the streets, shouted uneven slogans, and rushed towards the Tang gunners on the opposite side. Seeing that the Spanish army was forced out of the city by himself, a sneer crossed Li Xiao's face. "Order all the musketeers to retreat immediately, and the spear and shield battle array will come forward to engage, and the two wings will be rampant, and all the Spanish defenders must be defeated in one fell swoop!" "Order!"
